#1831 GREY SKIES
It is 8:52 a.m. and 34.1 degrees. Patrick and Junior are asleep downstairs on a couch. Gators newest varsity sport is Lacrosse, the 21st sport. First game is scheduled for 2010, 15 million dollar facility is under construction. We have Yale's former coach running the show. What the heck is Lacrosse??? Sounds like an Indian game played with snowshoes...
We had a tornado touch down a few miles north of us yesterday, and, I'm not making this up, you know where it landed, eh? Yes, a mobile home park...
FROM THE PATRIOT POST:
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
"Thomas Jefferson asserted, 'The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.' I am in complete agreement with that statement, and agree with my fellow Patriots around the country who sense that the time for 'refreshment' may be drawing near. However, I am a family man with small children who depend on me to provide for them. My heart is torn in that its says it would gladly give itself in mind and body to the causes which may unfold, but at the same time my heart says it must be there to provide for my children until they are old enough to make choices and provide for themselves. That said, if it meant that my children would live as wards of the State with me at their side, or as a free people with me as a loving memory in their hearts and minds, I would gladly take the latter, for if it were former I could not bear to look them in the eye and say that I did nothing." --San Diego, California
Editor's Reply: It is our fervent prayer that the thinly veiled revolution already underway in Washington, DC, "the fundamental transformation of the United States of America" in Obama's words, can be defeated peacefully. Every Patriot staff member is a parent. However, we all subscribe to these words from Thomas Paine, (December 19, 1776): "If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace."
GATORS:
Quarterback Tim Tebow (Jacksonville) was presented with the 2008 Maxwell Award on Friday evening in Atlantic City, given annually to the best all-around player in college football. Tebow joined Notre Dame’s John Lattner (1952-53) as the only repeat Maxwell winner since its inception in 1937.
The 2008 SEC Offensive Player of the Year, in addition to the league's Scholar-Athlete of the Year, Tebow led the SEC in completion percentage (64.4), touchdowns (30) and passing efficiency (172.4). He is the only player in NCAA history to rush and pass for at least 20 touchdowns in a season, with 32 passing and 23 rushing scores in 2007, and ranks first in Florida's record book for the most career rushing touchdowns. Tebow has thrown for 6,390 yards and 70 touchdowns in three seasons, while also gaining 2,037 yards on the ground with 43 rushing touchdowns, both school records by a Gator quarterback.

You mean they don't have a hockey rink they can use?
